Todd Snyder and New Balance continue their long-standing collaboration with the introduction of the 574 Legacy “Parchment & Pine” pack.
According to the menswear designer, the new styles are a “rugged luxe reimagining of one of New Balance’s most iconic silhouettes.”
Designed by Snyder with hues inspired by the holiday season, this new sneaker capsule is crafted with premium materials, and features a mix of clean leather and hairy suede uppers, complemented by a hairy suede “N” logo on the lateral sides. Other details include a lightweight EVA foam cushioning in the midsole and heel, as well as ENCAP midsole cushioning supported by a durable polyurethane rim.
When creating this pack, Snyder noted he was inspired by New York City’s Flower District during the holiday season. The “Pine” colorway is a deep evergreen, reminiscent of lush holiday foliage and freshly trimmed branches. While the “Parchment” colorway is a soft brown tone with a matte finish, evoking the parchment paper used to wrap trimmings.
Originally introduced in 1988, the 574 Legacy aims to preserve the timeless appeal of the iconic 574 sneaker model.
This latest collaboration comes as Snyder continues to release must-have shoe tie-ups. In June, Snyder teamed with gardening experts Gardenheir on a 12-piece capsule collection that ranges from clogs to smocks. The capsule features two made-in-Italy shoe styles – the aforementioned gardening clog and a leather fisherman sandal.
In May, Snyder joined forces with Sperry to update the footwear brand’s signature Authentic Original boat shoe. Dubbed the “Sperry x Todd Snyder Authentic Original,” the collaborative style boasts a luxe suede upper sourced from Charles F. Stead & Co. in Leeds, UK.
These collabs also come as Snyder launched his first-ever mainline shoe style – the Tuscan Court sneaker – in August 2023.
As for New Balance, the brand just took home the Company of the Year award at the 2024 FNAAs on Wednesday night. Presented by Olympian Gabby Thomas and accepted by New Balance chief executive officer Joe Preston, the company couldn’t miss in 2024.
“The teamwork that is exhibited across our company is the key reason why we are here tonight,” Preston said at Wednesday’s event in NYC. “It’s a fearlessly independent mindset that we operate from being privately held that we think allows us that opportunity.”
The Todd Snyder and New Balance’s 574 Legacy “Parchment & Pine” pack retails for $120 and is now available for purchase exclusively at Todd Snyder shops and on Toddsnyder.com.
